Cannula insertion documentation

Our recent IVTEAM poll has just finished. We asked the question “Should you record lot/batch numbers following cannula insertion”? 87% of IVTEAM visitors felt that it was important to record lot/batch numbers. Thank you to all who voted.

Our new poll has just been launched. IVTEAM are now asking “When securing a peripheral cannula do you use strips for additional fixation”?

Please visit our poll at the bottom of the page and cast your vote now.
